PATENT (DET CE WILLIAM B. FENN, OF WASHINGTON, PENNSYLVANIA.

SEQTIONAL GLA SS VESSEL.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 768,440, dated August23, I904. Application filed December 23, 1902. Serial N o. 136,415. (Nomodel.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, WILLIAM B. FENN, a citizen of the United States'ofAmerica, and a resident of Washington, in the county of Washington andState of Pennsylvania, have invented a certain new and useful SectionalGlass Vessel, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates particularly to the form of vessels forcontainingliquids which are practically closed and have small squirt.

orifices, or spraying openings, for discharging the liquid in smallquantities. The principal object of my invention is to provide a vesselof this kind which may have an integral top or discharge end, and yethave convenient means for filling the vessel. Another object is to allowof convenient manufacture of the article, and convenient access totheentire inside of the vessel for purposes of cleaning, &c. Theseobjects, as well as other advantages which will hereinafter appear, I

in all closed vessels having acapillary or very-- small dischargeorifice, to make the discharge end of the vessel in several parts, inorder to provide for the filling of the vessel and for cleaning it.There are many advantages to be gained if the head of a bottle such as Ihave indicated can be molded or blown all in one integral piece; but ofcourse this cannot be done unless the vessel is made in sections at someother point; I therefore provide a body portion a and a top portion 6,which has a neck and what may be called a head 0, through which is madea small orifice d, or

' several spray openings as d in Figure 3. An

extension, or flange of the upper portion, as

. 9, may telescope with the opening in the body portion a, it beingindifferent whether the same be inside or outside. At some-point, as inthe position shown in the drawing, a packing ring of some such materialas rubber is provided, and the two parts of the bottle are held fasttogether by means of a metal ring '6, which may be screwed in place onthe body a to compress the packing f, or obviously any other attachment,such as the well known bayonet joint, could be used.

By using the two-part vessel as I have indicated, the parts may be of ashape which renders the blowing of the glass unneccessary necessary-forthe male part of the mold to extend entirely through the passage cl,since this may be opened afterward by slight grinding onthe top of thenozzle. I

I am aware that bottles have heretofore been made in two pieces joinedtogether with rings and packing, and I do not claim broadly suchconstruction.

This invention is particularly adapted to vessels containing liquidwhich is used in very small quantities at a time, such as sauces,essences, tooth washes, &c. -It is evident that the invention is notlimited to any particular material of which to make the vessel, nor toany particular form-of vessel, and it might well be used in variousatomizers or pepper boxes, and many other articles that will readilyoccur to a skilled manufacturer.

7 But having thus described my invention and some of its uses, what Iclaim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is the following:

1. A two-part bottle composed of a body and flared mouthed neck portionhaving means for sealing together the two parts thereof, the upper partbeing provided with and it can be made in a press mold. It is not 1 atapering neck ending in a head formed integrally therewith and havingtherethrough a small squirt orifice, substantially as described.

2. A vessel comprising a relatively large body portion with an open top,an open top portion to fit thereon and means for fastening the tWo partstogether, the top portion having a long extended neck With a head'formed I 1 T T integrally thereon, and said head being pro- ILLIAMBIAA' 5 vided With a small capillary orifice theremy name in thepresence of the two subscribed \vltnesses.
